Today I got to live out a Husker fan’s dream and “throw the bones” with one of the most iconic blackshirts of this century, Adam Carriker.

As a former player and representative of his brand Carriker Chronicles in the media, Adam offers a unique and thorough perspective on our beloved Husker team;

• Unlocking athletic potential as a multi-sport athlete.

No stranger to adversity, Adam recounted the bleak reviews he received when he arrived in Lincoln. He also shared how at one point, he thought playing football at Nebraska was too lofty of a goal. So, what changed?

• His mindset, he used the naysayers to get fired up!

With this tremendous attitude, his dream of becoming a blackshirt and representing the elite level at Nebraska came to fruition.

I hope you thoroughly enjoy this interview as it reminds me of this quote:

“It is not the honor that you take with you, but the heritage you leave behind.” -Branch Rickey
